gh to rhinocript communication

Is there a way To have grasshopper information directly accessible To rhinoscript? other than writing to a text file from grasshopper and then reading that text file in rhinoscript?

For example: i'm sending (GUID)object identifiers from grasshopper to a text file and then reading that text file in rhinoscript. I'm wondering if there's a more direct method, maybe firefly but i'm not very familiar with it yet.

thanks for any suggestions!

Hi Ian,

I doubt there's a better way. You could use the Clipboard for communication, but that has all kinds of awkward side-effects. Are you experiencing performance problems with your current solution, or is this just a point of interest?

Hi David,
Thanks for the reply. This topic was more a point of interest. I like using gh for the visual feedback with the model where i can visually make object selections, but then want to use some of my .rvb scripts on those selections.
thanks
